~~The~~ENEL: ~~plan~~AGREEMENT ~~calls~~WITH ~~for~~THE ~~the~~ANTITRUST ~~involvement~~AUTHORITY ofENSURES ~~the~~GREATER ~~leading~~COMPETITIVENESS ~~Italian~~ON ~~and~~THE ~~international universities and~~ITALIAN ~~research~~ELECTRICITY ~~institutes. In conjunction with the presentation of the plan for the environment, Enel and~~MARKET the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in Boston have decided to strengthen the existing cooperation between the two organizations. Enel’s research unit will also be participating in the MIT Energy Initiative currently being developed, and MIT researchers will be contributing to Enel projects on the capture and sequestration of CO2, advanced solar systems and energy savings.

“Enel is a major energy company, and we intend to work hard to leave a better world for the coming generations,” said Fulvio Conti. “This is a mission we will carry our through research and innovation programmes, and the testing and application of the most advanced technologies, together with a day-to-day focus on the environmental impact of our activities and the activities of our customers. We want to attain ever higher environmental and efficiency standards, thereby confirming our leadership in the area of renewable sources. In order to contribute to achieving these ambitious goals, over the next five years (2007-2011), Enel plans to develop an ambitious investment programme of more than 4 billion euros: 800 million euros in innovative projects and 3.3 billion euros in the development of renewable sources (an additional 1,700 MW over the next 5 years), 1.6 billion euros of which in Italy. A concrete commitment that has few parallels anywhere in the world.”

•		The Antitrust Authority closed its investigation for abuse of dominant position without finding violations by Enel and Enel Produzione.

•		Accepted Enel’s commitments to sell VPP (Virtual Power Plant) through financial contracts for difference, for two years, for a total capacity of 1,000 MW for 2007 and 700 MW for 2008.

~~“Enel’s nature and history~~Rome, ~~which are so closely linked to the territory and its development~~December 27, ~~have imprinted~~2006 a- ~~sensitivity~~Enel tois ~~social~~pleased ~~and~~with ~~environmental issues in~~ the ~~company’s~~decision ~~genes,”~~taken ~~said~~by ~~Piero Gnudi. “A focus on people and on nature sowed~~ the ~~seeds~~Italian ~~of today’s corporate responsibility as far~~Antitrust ~~back~~Authority ~~as the early 1960s. With the company’s privatization in 1999, this sensitivity took on additional meaning, becoming a key~~ to ~~competitiveness~~close inits ~~the~~proceedings ~~international marketplace.

Enel offered the Antitrust Authority to undertake several measures aimed at removing the anti-competitive behaviour which formed the subject matter of the investigation.

Specifically Enel agreed to sell capacity based on the VPP (Virtual Power Plant) mechanism through financial contracts for difference, for two years and for a total capacity of 1,000 MW in 2007 and - subject to verification on the status of competition of the market — of 700 MW in 2008.

The undertakings presented by Enel were well received by the Antitrust Authority which considered them as appropriate and effective and accepted them, enforcing their implementation.

Enel Produzione has already started the VPP assignment procedures in order to comply with the obligations mentioned above as soon as possible.

~~and~~“By ~~will~~such ~~all~~undertaking,” ~~have~~Enel aCEO ~~highly~~Fulvio ~~positive~~Conti ~~impact~~commented, on“Enel ~~CO2~~is ~~emissions,~~once ~~with~~again ancontributing ~~estimated~~to ~~4 million~~create ~~metric~~conditions ~~tons~~for ofgreater ~~CO2~~competition ~~avoided~~on ~~each~~the ~~year~~Italian ~~once~~electricity ~~fully implemented~~market. ~~This~~I ~~adds~~would like to ~~the~~express ~~12 million~~my ~~metric~~appreciation ~~tons~~for ~~(-17%)~~the ofpositive ~~CO2~~attitude ~~already~~and ~~avoided~~openness ~~thanks~~ to ~~the~~discussion ~~investments~~demonstrated inby ~~Enel~~the ~~plants from~~Antitrust ~~2000~~Authority, towhich ~~today~~prevented useless legal proceedings. ~~All~~Such ofdecision ~~Enel’s~~shows ~~areas~~that ~~will~~Antitrust beAuthority appreciates ~~involved~~the inmeasures suggested as well as the ~~project,~~fair ~~beginning~~attitude ~~with~~shown by Enel since the ~~research~~beginning ~~unit,~~of ~~which~~the ~~has~~liberalization ~~always~~of ~~been~~the aItalian ~~benchmark~~electricity ~~for~~market ~~excellence~~and inproven ~~Italy~~by ~~and~~the ~~throughout~~disposal ~~Europe~~of ~~and~~the ~~which~~Gencos ~~will~~and beof ~~further~~Terna’s ~~strengthened~~controlling ~~with~~stake ahead of the ~~hiring~~deadlines ofset 40by ~~new~~the ~~researchers~~law.”

Finally, today Enel has also inaugurated three photovoltaic plants installed on the roof of the company’s headquarters in Rome (viale Regina Margherita). They have a total capacity of 40.2 kW, with an expected output of some 54,000 kWh per year, which will avoid the emission of 31 metric tons of carbon dioxide.

An extensive information campaign to begin in the next few days will focus on developing awareness of the quality and scope of Enel’s commitment to all its stakeholders – shareholders, customers, employees, the communities that are home to the Group’s activities, national and local government, environmental and consumer organizations, and opinion leaders.

Under the terms of the agreement approved by Enel’s Board of Directors on November 30 this year and executed by the parties on December 1, Enel sold 10% of Weather to a wholly-owned Weather subsidiary and the remaining 16.1% to the parent company Weather Investments II S.à.r.l. (Weather II), a holding company controlled by Sawiris.

The consideration agreed for the sale of the 26.1% share capital of Weather is 1,962 million euros (equal to the carrying value of such equity investment in Enel’s consolidated financial statements at 30 September, 2006), of which of 1 billion euros were paid to Enel today and 962 million euros will be paid within the next 18 months. The second instalment will earn interest at market rates.

Payment of the second instalment is secured by the pledge (without voting rights) of the 26.1% of Weather share capital in favour of Enel, as well as the assignment of Weather II’s receivables due from Weather.

The agreement also provides for an earn-out mechanism, which will supplement the price due

to Enel in the event Sawiris’ group, during the next 18 months, should sell the Weather shares to other investors at a price above that agreed with Enel. The supplement will take effect in any case if any re-sale of the Weather shares takes place in the next 6 months. Over the reminder of the 18-month period the earn-out mechanism will take effect only if the second instalment (962 million euros) has not already been paid.

Furthermore, the shareholders’ agreements between Enel and Sawiris concerning the management of Weather were terminated.

On the basis of consolidated figures at September 30, 2006, Weather posted revenues of 6,287 million euros, EBIT of 1,208 million euros and net income of 226 million euros. At the same date, shareholders’ equity totalled 3,496 million euros.

~~Enel Investment Holding paid $150 million, equal to about €118 million at the acquisition date.~~***** Fortuna is one of the leading Panamanian electricity companies, operating in the province of Chiriquì with a 300 MW power plant. It generates a total of about 1600 GWh a year, giving it a 30% share of national power output. In 2005 Fortuna posted revenues of $128.7 million, a gross operating margin of $97.8 million and operating income of $82.2 million.

Interim dividend for 2006 approved

On September 6, 2006 the Board of Directors of Enel SpA approved the distribution of an interim dividend of €0.20 per share. The interim dividend will be paid as from November 23, 2006, with the ex-dividend date falling on November 20, 2006.

Acquisition of a relative majority stake in TradeWind Energy LLC

On September 26, 2006, Enel, through its subsidiary Enel North America, acquired a stake of 45% in the US wind power developer TradeWind Energy LLC (TradeWind), which is based in Lenexa, Kansas, with which it has formed a strategic alliance for the joint development of wind projects in the Midwest and other areas of the United States. Enel paid $10.5 million for its holding, equal to about €8 million at the acquisition date. Under the terms of the agreements, Enel North America will cooperate with TradeWind on the co-development of TradeWind’s pipeline of more than 1,000 MW of projects, supplying the turbines for the projects. Enel will have the right to acquire and operate the wind plants developed.

Subsequent events and outlook

Subsequent events

Memorandum of Understanding with NEK (Bulgarian national electricity company) and Bulgargaz

On October 4, 2006, Enel and NEK (the Bulgarian national electricity company) signed a Memorandum of Understanding to conduct a preliminary technical and financial feasibility study to increase generating capacity at the Maritza East III power plant by 640 MW and the subsequent joint implementation of the project.

Enel estimates the investment required to complete the project at about €900 million, with the introduction of the most advanced environmental impact abatement technologies while maximizing synergies with the existing plant.

On the same date, Enel also signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Bulgargaz for the joint construction of a gas pipeline between Bulgaria and Italy along “Corridor 8”, through Macedonia and Albania. The corridor is of strategic importance for these countries, which in April 2005 signed a joint statement of cooperation in the energy infrastructure field.

Acquisition of an additional 25% of Enelco

On October 4, 2006 Enel reached an agreement to increase its equity stake in the Greek electricity company Enelco, in line with its growth strategy in the markets of South-eastern Europe.

Under the terms of the agreement, Enel will raise its equity investment in Enelco from 50% to 75%. The other 25% will remain under the control of Prometheus Gas, a joint venture between the Copelouzos Group (Greece) and Gazprom (Russia). Enelco already holds two generation licenses for the development of gas combined-cycle plants at Viotia and Evros and will participate in all tenders for the development of independent generation plants in Greece, beginning with that for the development of 400 MW in new capacity recently announced by the Greek authorities.

Enel, in cooperation with Prometheus Gas, intends to be a major player in the Greek market, where liberalization is under way, and will also have the opportunity to export energy to Italy over existing interconnection infrastructure.

Acquisition of generation capacity in Brazil

On October 6, 2006 Enel, through the Brazilian subsidiary of Enel Latin America, Enel Brasil Partecipações, closed the acquisition of the entire share capital of 10 companies in the Rede Group that possess 20 mini-hydro plants with a total installed capacity of about 92 MW.

The price for the acquisition of the 10 companies was about 464 million reals, equal to about €168 million at the exchange rate on the acquisition date.

The transaction was carried out in accordance with the preliminary agreement signed on June 9, 2006, which also envisages the acquisition of another company operating two mini-hydro plants with an installed capacity of about 6 MW. This acquisition should be completed by March 2007, as soon as the revamping work currently under way is completed.

With this agreement, Enel continues the pursuit of its global strategy of developing renewable energy resources and its commitment to containing greenhouse gas emissions, especially in emerging countries, and enters the promising Brazilian energy market, the largest and fastest growing in South America.

Acquisition of a wind project in Texas

On October 18, 2006, Enel, through its subsidiary Enel North America, signed an agreement with Windkraft Nord USA (Wkn USA) to acquire rights to 63 MW of the Snyder project, to be developed in Scurry County in Texas. The new wind plant will generate CO2-free power in Texas as from 2007.

Outlook

Enel recently finalized additional foreign investments in the field of renewable energy resources, with the acquisition of Erelis, a French wind plant operator, and the acquisition of Enel Panama, which gives Enel indirect control of the Panamanian hydro generation company EGE Fortuna S.A.. The acquisitions carried out in the first nine months of the year confirm Enel’s strategy of expanding its international operations.

In Italy, Enel will continue to develop programs to reduce costs and improve operating efficiency, as well as implementing strategies to optimize fuel supplies. Enel will also continue its initiatives to transform its power stations to the use of a more secure and efficient fuel mix.

On the basis of the results achieved in the first nine months of the year and the initiatives undertaken by Enel, we expect the Group’s net income for 2006, excluding the contribution of Wind and Terna, to exceed that posted in 2005.

Taking account of cash flows from current operations and already defined extraordinary operations, net financial debt is expected to stand at around €14 billion at the end of the year.

§ Domestic energy demand in the two periods in question increased over the same periods of 2005 (up 3.2% in the 3rd Quarter and 2.5% in the first nine months) reaching 252.5 billion kWh at September 30, 2006. Of this demand, 87.6% was met by net domestic generation for consumption and 12.4% by net electricity imports;

§ net electricity imports in the first nine months decreased by 6.5 billion kWh, due essentially to the sharp increase in energy prices in Europe in the first few months of 2006;

§ gross electricity generation increased by 4.0% in the 3rd Quarter and by 5.6% in the first nine months of the year as a result of lower imports and an increase in demand for electricity. As regards the generation mix, the first nine months of 2006 were characterized by a sharp increase in thermal generation (up 10.5 billion kWh) and generation from geothermal and other sources (up 0.4 billion kWh in the 3rd Quarter and 1.2 billion kWh in the first nine months);

(1)		Sales made by generation companies and sales to resellers.
(2)		Excluding sales to resellers.
(3)		Including 1,472 million kWh of power wheeled in previous years commercially recognized in 2005.

§ Enel’s net domestic electricity generation fell 3.2% in the 3rd Quarter and 3.9% in the first nine months. This decrease in production is related to thermal power generation (down 1.5 billion kWh in the 3rd Quarter and 3.9 billion kWh in the first nine months);

§ electricity purchases fell by 5.2% in the 3rd Quarter and 7.5% in the first nine months. This decrease is related to lower imports and smaller sales on the regulated market;

§ sales to wholesalers fell by 8.9% in the 3rd Quarter and 10.5% in the first nine months of the year, due primarily to the reduction in market share (related to net electricity generation and electricity imports) to 34.7% in the first nine months of 2006, compared with the 37.9% for the same period of 2005.

As for overall sales to the final consumer, Enel’s market share in the first nine months of 2006 came to about 45.3% (about 47.9% in the same period of the previous year). In particular:

§ sales on the regulated market, excluding sales to resellers, fell by 4.4% in the 3rd Quarter and 5.1% in the first nine months, primarily the result of market liberalization;

§ sales on the free market, excluding sales to resellers, increased by 16.6% in the 3rd Quarter and 11.5% in the first nine months;

§ total energy transported on Enel’s network increased by 3.6% in the 3rd Quarter and 1.5% in the first nine months. Excluding from the figures for the first nine months of 2005 the additions made for electricity that was physically transported in previous periods but commercially recognized in 2005, volumes rose 2.3% in the period.

§ Enel’s net generation abroad in the first nine months of 2006 amounted to 18,486 million kWh, an increase of 8,271 million kWh (of which 6,308 million kWh from nuclear plants and 2,156 million kWh from hydro facilities), mainly attributable to acquisitions carried out in the first nine months of 2006;

§ electricity sales in the first nine months of 2006 rose by 4,379 million kWh, thanks to the contribution of the Romanian distribution companies, which have been consolidated since the end of April 2005, and the Russian energy trading company RusEnergoSbyt, which has been consolidated since the end of June this year;

§ energy transported in the first nine months of 2006 totaled 9,318 million kWh, an increase of 2,684 million kWh, mainly due to increased wheeling on the Romanian companies’ networks.

Changes in the scope of consolidation

The scope of consolidation for the first nine months of 2006 changed with respect to the same period of 2005 as a result of the following main transactions:

§ the acquisition of controlling stakes in the Romanian electricity distribution and sale companies Electrica Banat and Electrica Dobrogea (now Enel Electrica Banat and Enel Electrica Dobrogea) on April 28, 2005;

§ sale of 100% of Wind, 62.75% of which was sold on August 11, 2005, and 6.28% on February 8, 2006, with the remaining 30.97% being transferred to Weather Investments, again on February 8, 2006, for a stake of 20.9% in the latter;

§ sale of 43.85% of Terna, which took place in two transactions (13.86% on April 5, 2005 and 29.99% on September 15, 2005), and its deconsolidation on September 15, 2005;

§ sale of 30% of Enel Unión Fenosa Renovables on May 30, 2006. Following this sale, the interest in the company fell to 50%, with the Group exercising joint control over the company together with the other shareholders. As a result, the company is being consolidated on a proportionate basis as of that date;

§ acquisition of a 66% interest in Slovenské Elektrárne, a company that generates and sells electricity in Slovakia, on April 28, 2006;

§ acquisition from third parties of the remaining 40% interest in Maritza East III Power Holding on June 14, 2006. Following this transaction, the Group now holds a 73% stake in Maritza East III Power Company, a Bulgarian generation company;

§ acquisition, on June 14, 2006, of a 100% interest in Maritza O&M Holding Netherlands, a holding company that owns 73% of Maritza East 3 Operating Company, which is responsible for the maintenance of the Maritza East III plant;

§ acquisition, on June 21, 2006, of a 49.5% interest in Res Holdings, which holds a 100% stake in the Russian firm RusEnergoSbyt (energy trading and sales). Enel exercises joint control over the company together with the other shareholders; as a result, the company is consolidated on a proportionate basis;

§ acquisition, on July 13, 2006, of 100% of Erelis, a French company specialized in the development of wind plants;

§ acquisition on August 1, 2006 of 100% of Enel Panama, which together with Globeleq (a private equity fund) exercises de facto joint control over EGE Fortuna S.A., a Panamanian hydro generation company. As a result, the company is consolidated on a proportionate basis.

Excluding the sales of Wind and Terna (for which the results and the capital gain posted in the first nine months of 2005 have been recognized as discontinued operations), the balance sheet effects of the other changes in the scope of consolidation do not affect the comparability of the figures for the two periods. The main effects are shown in the comments on results by Division.

Results by Division

The results presented in this report reflect the new organizational structure launched by the Group at the end of 2005, which, in addition to the Domestic Sales Division, the Domestic Generation and Energy Management Division and the Domestic Infrastructure and Networks Division, saw the creation of an International Division that includes all the Group’s resources devoted to the production and distribution of electricity and gas abroad. The new structure has been operational since January 1, 2006. The Domestic Sales Division operates in the end-user market for electrical power and gas in Italy, developing an integrated package of products and services for the various customer segments and ensuring that commercial services meet quality standards. The Domestic Generation and Energy Management Division is responsible for generating power at competitive costs while safeguarding the environment. The mission of the Domestic Infrastructure and Networks Division is to distribute electricity and gas in Italy, optimizing the management of Enel’s networks and ensuring the efficient operation of measurement systems and compliance with technical service quality standards. The International Division’s mission is to support Enel’s international growth strategy, which requires a strengthening of skills in research, analysis and identification of opportunities for acquisitions as well as in managing and integrating foreign operations in the electricity and gas markets.

Each of these Divisions, together with the Parent Company and Services and Other Activities segments are considered by management in assessing Group performance.

For the purposes of providing comparable figures, the data for the first nine months of 2005 have been reallocated to the Divisions on the basis of the new organizational arrangements. The figures for Transmission Networks and Telecommunications following the deconsolidation of Wind and Terna in the 2nd Half of 2005 are reported in the reference period as discontinued operations.

Following the transfer of the “large electricity users” unit (customers with annual consumption of more than 100 million kWh) from Enel Trade to Enel Energia, the 2005 figures for the unit were reallocated from the Domestic Generation and Energy Management Division to the Domestic Sales Division for comparative purposes.

Regulatory and rate issues

Rates and rate updates

With Resolution no. 207/06 of September 27, 2006, the Authority for Electricity and Gas increased electricity rates for the 4th Quarter of the current year by an average of about €2.2/MWh net of taxes, equal to 1.7% of the total price.

In particular, the increases concerned the component covering the cost of raw materials and ancillary services (up 1.3%) and especially the component covering charges for generation with renewable resources and CIP6, which increased by 10%, going from €10 to €11/MWh.

With Resolution no. 202/06 of September 20, 2006, the Authority approved the value of Deval’s specific company adjustment factor for revenues eligible to cover distribution costs for 2004. This value allows for an increase in equalized eligible revenues of about €1.5 million.

With Resolution no. 145/06 of July 14, 2006, the Authority extended by 45 days the deadlines set by Articles 42.6, 42.8, 42.9 and 42.10 of the unified code annexed to Resolution no. 5/04 concerning general equalization for 2005. More specifically, by November 14, 2006, the Electricity Equalization Fund is to notify the Authority and the distribution companies of the equalization amounts set for 2005, which are to be settled beginning by mid-January 2007.

Blackout

With regard to the blackout of September 28, 2003, the number of claims filed for damages totaled more than 80,000 as of September 30, 2006. All such claims are for small amounts (almost all before justices of the peace in Campania and Calabria) and related to material losses (spoiled food as a result of interruption of the cold chain) or other non-economic losses.

Although the first-level rulings mainly found in favor of the plaintiffs, most courts of appeal have so far overturned the rulings issued by the justices of peace, basing their judgments upon both the recognition that Enel was not involved in causing the event and the lack of proof of the loss claimed.

Inquiries and fact-finding investigations

With Resolution no. 130/06 of June 28, 2006, the Authority opened a formal inquiry into Enel Distribuzione concerning the absence, through February 2006, of an indication on invoices as to the possibility of paying invoices free of charge. The inquiry was to be completed and the final measure published by the Authority by the end of October, but,

given the state of proceedings, it is likely that this deadline will be pushed back to the end of 2006.

With Resolution no. 271/06 of October 4, 2006, the Authority opened a fact-finding investigation of the service interruption in Sicily on July 17, 2006. As concerns Enel Distribuzione, the investigation is intended to verify any failure to execute orders issued by Terna in conjunction with the return of service.

Sales on the regulated market in the first nine months of 2006 came to 91,824 million kWh, a decrease of 4,953 million kWh from the first nine months of 2005 (down 1,391 million kWh in the 3rd Quarter) due primarily to greater market liberalization. The volume of electricity sold on the free market in the first nine months of 2006 grew by 1,575 million kWh (up 764 million kWh in the 3rd Quarter).

Regulatory and rate issues

Rates and rate updates

In conjunction with the updating of the raw materials component of the supply prices of natural gas for the 3rd Quarter of 2006, the Authority, in a manner which is not as yet entirely clear, altered the updating criteria set out in Resolution no. 248/04. The new Resolution no. 134/06 modifies certain parameters in the formula for updating the raw

materials component for Brent levels above $60/bbl and provides for incentives for the renegotiation of 2005 wholesale contracts.

With regard to the status of pending rate appeals, the Council of State has only issued a definitive ruling on one of the appeals presented by the Authority against the judgments of the Regional Administrative Court that voided Resolution no. 248/04. In this case, the Council of State upheld the appeal of the Authority for Electricity and Gas. A number of other appeals have not yet been discussed owing to alleged formal irregularities, and have been postponed until the plenary session of the Council of State scheduled for November 13, 2006.

Inquiries and fact-finding investigations

With Resolution no. 230/06 of October 18, 2006, the Authority for Electricity and Gas fined Enel the amount of €1 million following the outcome of the formal inquiry initiated with Resolution no. 108/05 concerning the disclosure obligations on gas import contracts as required by Resolution no. 188/04. Enel is determining whether there are grounds to appeal Resolution no. 230/06 before the administrative courts.

With Resolution no. 131/06, the Authority opened a formal inquiry of Enel Gas for alleged violation of Article 11.1 of the commercial code of conduct, which establishes the minimum content of contracts. More specifically, the inquiry concerns the indications in “off-network” contracts regarding the methods and timing of meter reading for invoicing purposes, payment methods, the frequency with which invoices are issued, and the indication of certain automatic indemnities established for customers. The inquiry was to be closed and the final measure published by the Authority by the end of October, but, given the state of proceedings, it is likely that this deadline will be pushed back to the end of 2006.

Gas sales

The table below shows the quantities of gas sold and the number of customers served:

3rd Quarter								First nine months
2006		2005		Change				2006		2005		Change
							Gas sold (millions of cubic meters)
	261		289		(28	)	Enel Group networks		2,308		2,449		(141	)
	203		241		(38	)	Third-party networks		890		1,079		(189	)

							Third-party networks		329,162		144,919		184,243
							Total customers		2,288,902		2,069,031		219,871

Gas sales in the first nine months of 2006 totaled 3,198 million cubic meters, a decline of 330 million cubic meters from the same period of 2005. Customers served numbered some 2.3 million, an increase of about 0.2 million. These developments are essentially due to the different customer mix, with a preference for retail customers (with consumption of less than 200,000 cubic meters per year) over business customers (with consumption of greater than 200,000 cubic meters per year), as well as to the contribution of acquisitions in the gas sector in the last quarter of 2005 and the first nine months of 2006.

Operating performance in the 3rd Quarter

Revenues totaled €5,138 million in the 3rd Quarter of 2006, an increase of €421 million (up 8.9%) over the same period of 2005, due to the following factors:

§ an increase of €393 million in revenues from the sale of electricity on the regulated market, mainly relating to the increase in the portion of revenues for the coverage of generation costs that is reflected in rates (€453 million), which was partially offset by the equalization mechanism for electricity purchases (down €287 million) for the coverage of generation costs not yet reflected in rates. Other factors were an increase in revenues from transport and ancillary services in the amount of €95 million and in revenues from the sale of electricity on the free market in the amount of €87 million;

§ an increase of €28 million in revenues from gas sales attributable both to the increase in unit prices, which more than made up for the decline in the volume of sales, and to the effect of recent acquisitions within the gas sector.

The gross operating margin totaled €12 million in the 3rd Quarter of 2006, an increase of €42 million over the loss of €30 million in the same period of 2005. The overall improvement is the net result of the following main factors:

§ for electricity, an increase in €56 million in the electricity margin due to the greater volumes sold on the free market;

§ for gas, a decrease of €14 million due to the reduction in the gas margin as well as the application of Resolution nos. 248/04 and 134/06, which changed the criteria used for adjusting the price of gas supplies with reference to raw materials costs.

The operating loss came to €20 million, an improvement of €33 million over the 3rd Quarter of 2005, taking account of depreciation, amortization and impairment losses in the amount of €32 million (€23 million in the same period of 2005).

Operating performance in the first nine months

Revenues totaled €15,662 million in the first nine months of 2006, an increase of €1,601 million (up 11.4%) over the same period of 2005, due to the following factors:

§ an increase of €1,456 million in revenues from electricity sales on the regulated market, related primarily to the increase in the portion of revenues for the coverage of generation costs reflected in rates (up €980 million) and in equalization payments for electricity purchases (up €52 million) for the coverage of generation costs not yet reflected in rates. Other factors were an increase in revenues from transport and ancillary services in the amount of €173 million and in revenues from the sale of electricity on the free market in the amount of €165 million, as well as the increase in Enel.si revenues related to photovoltaic activities in the amount of €9 million;

§ an increase of €145 million in revenues from gas sales attributable to the increase in unit prices, which more than made up for the decline in the volume of sales.

The gross operating margin totaled €174 million, up €140 million from the €34 million posted for the first nine months of 2005. The overall improvement is the net result of the following main factors:

§ for electricity, an increase of €178 million, due to the improvement in the electricity margin and non-recurring items connected with the purchase of electricity in previous periods (up €71 million);

§ for gas, a decrease of €38 million, essentially due to the application of Resolution nos. 248/04 and 134/06 of the Authority for Electricity and Gas, which changed the criteria used for adjusting the price of gas supplies with reference to raw materials costs (down €56 million). This was partially offset by an improvement in the gas margin and the payment of a reimbursement for lower gas purchases in previous periods.

Operating income, after depreciation, amortization and impairment losses in the amount of €81 million (€68 million for the same period of the previous year), came to €93 million, increasing by €127 million over the first nine months of 2005.

Capital expenditure

Capital expenditure amounted to €22 million, essentially in line with the figure for the year-earlier period.

Domestic Generation and Energy Management

This Division is responsible for the generation and procurement of electricity and energy products.

In the context of the reorganization of the Division that began in 2004, Enel Produzione acquired the engineering and construction unit serving the Enel Group from Enelpower on January 1, 2006.

The activities of the Domestic Generation and Energy Management Division are as follows:

§ the generation and sale of electricity:

- electricity generation in Italy through Enel Produzione; - trading on international and domestic markets through Enel Trade;

§ the procurement and sale of energy products through Enel Trade:

- the procurement of energy products for all Group activities (electricity generation, trading, sale of natural gas to end-users);

- the sale of natural gas to distributors; - trading on international markets;

§ engineering and construction through Enel Produzione.

Regulatory and rate issues

“Ancillary Services Market” (ASM)

With Resolution no. 111/06, the Authority for Electricity and Gas revised the conditions for ancillary services effective as of January 1, 2007, by introducing the so-called “Accounts System”, designed to foster the integrated management of the spot and

forward markets, thereby enabling companies to adjust forward positions on the “Day-Ahead Market” (DAM).

The introduction of this “Accounts System” could lead to the development one or more forward trading floors.

With regard to the ASM, the Authority for Electricity and Gas also adopted Resolution no. 165/06, which contains urgent measures intended to limit ancillary service charges (following the high costs recorded on the ASM in April and May 2006) taking effect as of August 1, 2006. The measures regarded issues such as the following: i) the definition of input programs to include non-schedulable generation units; ii) the intertemporal coordination of Terna’s action in the various phases of the ASM, removing the charges related to revoking bids on this market; iii) an increase in Terna’s scope to operate on the DAM, and iv) a change in imbalance payments for major generation and consumption units in order to make them more consistent with the costs incurred by Terna for real-time system balancing.

Inquiries and fact-finding investigations

With regard to the inquiry opened by the Competition Authority on April 6, 2005, concerning Enel and Enel Produzione for alleged abuse of dominant position regarding pricing on the Power Exchange from January 10 to 14, 2005, on May 17, 2006, the Competition Authority reported the results of its inquiry and confirmed its accusation of abuse of dominant position.

The inquiry was originally scheduled to be completed by March 31, 2006, but was extended to October 15, 2006, and then to December 22, 2006.

In the event that Enel SpA and Enel Produzione should be found guilty of such abuse, the Competition Authority could impose penalties that could theoretically be as high as 10% of the Group’s sales.

On October 17, Enel Produzione, taking advantage of the option introduced by the new Article 14-ter of Law 287/90, presented its commitment to cede 700 MW in the southern macro-zone for 2007 and 2008. In the event this commitment should be accepted, the Competition Authority could make it binding and close the inquiry without issuing a ruling or levying sanctions.

On October 4, 2006, with Resolution no. 271/06, the Authority for Electricity and Gas opened a fact-finding investigation of the supply interruption that involved the electrical system in Sicily on July 17, 2006. As concerns Enel Produzione, the investigation is intended to verify the methods for applying safety criteria and complying with the orders issued by Terna to ensure system safety. Another goal of the investigation is to identify any specific steps that can be taken to make Sicily’s electrical system more robust.

Emissions Trading

With regard to the Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS), despite the issues that have yet to be resolved concerning the launch of the National Registry of emissions and the issuance of allowances to the plants that began operations in 2005, Enel returned the allowances for 2005 emissions in the manner specified by the applicable regulations. As concerns the period from 2008 to 2012, as called for by Directive 2003/87/EC, the National Allocation Plans were to have been presented to the Commission by June 30, 2006. However, not all Member States met this deadline. Italy issued a first draft of the plan for 2008-2012 for consultation on July 14, 2006. Before submission to the European Commission, the Government has indicated its intention to review the document, especially in the light of its impact on competitiveness. It therefore appears unlikely that the plan will be presented in time for assessment by the European Commission in the session scheduled for November 2006.

As for the allocation of CO2 allowances for the 2005-2007 period, Enel Produzione’s plants have been allocated 48.2 million metric tons in emission allowances for 2005, 40.5 million metric tons for 2006, and 39.9 million metric tons for 2007. The actual emissions exceeded these allowances by about 8.0 million metric tons in 2005 and about 7.6 million metric tons for the first nine months of 2006. In order to cover the cumulative deficit, Enel Produzione has turned to the spot market to procure 6.2 million metric tons and the forward market for 5.7 million metric tons. The remaining deficit of 3.7 million metric tons has been valued at the market price of the end of the period.

In the first nine months of 2006, net electricity generation totaled 80,132 million kWh, a decrease of 3.9% over the same period of 2005. More specifically, thermal generation declined by 3,904 million kWh, which was partially offset by an increase in hydroelectric generation (up 454 million kWh), geothermal generation (up 148 million kWh), and generation from other sources (up 42 million kWh) as a result of the entry into service of new wind plants.

In the first nine months of 2006, the fuel mix used in thermal generation saw a decrease in natural gas and a rise in the use of fuel oil.

The reduced use of natural gas for electricity generation and the consequent increased use of fuel oil is related to the decree of the Ministry for Economic Development that established certain modifications to the operations of thermal power plants in early 2006 in order to reduce the consumption of gas for electricity generation.

Operating performance in the 3rd Quarter

Revenues totaled €3,814 million in the 3rd Quarter of 2006, an increase of €805 million (up 26.8%) over the same period of 2005, due primarily to the following factors:

§ a €563 million increase in revenues related to trading on international markets, with an increase in sales of some 9 TWh, and to growth in operations on the free market; § a €157 million increase in revenues from electricity sales on the Power Exchange, related primarily to price increases; § the recognition of €36 million in revenues for work in progress related to activities abroad (Spain, El Salvador and Bulgaria) following the acquisition of the engineering and construction business unit from Enelpower in January 2006.

The gross operating margin for the 3rd Quarter totaled €795 million, an increase of €112 million (up 16.4%) over the €683 million posted in 3rd Quarter of 2005. This increase primarily reflects the smaller negative impact for the two periods considered of the fair value measurement of contracts for differences with the Single Buyer (up €117 million), which was partially offset by the reduction in the generation margin (down €5 million).

Operating income reached €548 million for an increase of €124 million (up 29.2%) over the 3rd Quarter of 2005 (€424 million); with respect to the gross operating margin, this figure benefited from lower depreciation and amortization in the amount of €12 million.

Operating performance in the first nine months

Revenues for the first nine months of 2006 totaled €11,723 million, an increase of €2,231 million (up 23.5%) over the same period of 2005, due primarily to the following factors:

§ a €1,612 million increase in revenues related to trading on international markets, with an increase in sales of some 24 TWh, and to growth in operations on the free market; § a €713 million increase in revenues from electricity sales on the Power Exchange due both to price increases and to the recognition of the recovery of higher costs incurred for the “gas emergency”, as called for by the Authority for Electricity and Gas, which defined the procedure for the reimbursement of such costs with Resolution no. 178/06; § a €135 million increase in revenues from the sale of fuel for trading, which was the net result of the €213 million increase in gas sales and the €78 million decline in sales of other fuels; § an increase of €92 million in revenues for the benefits resulting from the implementation of settlement agreements with Siemens (€51 million) and the settlement of prior-year items with the ISO, now Terna (€41 million); § the recognition of €68 million in revenues for work in progress related to activities abroad (Spain, El Salvador and Bulgaria) following the acquisition of the engineering and construction business unit from Enelpower; § recognition for the first nine months of 2005 of prior-year regulatory items in the amount of €362 million related to reserve services provided to the ISO (now the Electricity System Operator) for the period from 2002 to March 31, 2004 (€262 million) and to the reimbursement of green certificate charges incurred in 2002 and 2003 paid by the Authority for Electricity and Gas following Resolution no. 101/2005 (€100 million); § a decrease in payments for transactions on the Power Exchange (primarily lower capacity payments, which, in 2005, also included the variable portion related to 2004) in the amount of €73 million (€61 million in the first nine months of 2006 compared with the €134 million in the first nine months of 2005).

The gross operating margin came to €2,645 million, a decline of €283 million (down 9.7%) from the €2,928 million posted in first nine months of 2005. This reduction is essentially attributable to the smaller contribution of prior-year items (down €270

million), as well as the effects of the fair value measurement of contracts for differences with the Single Buyer (down €305 million). These decreases were partially offset by an improvement in the generation margin (up €292 million).

Operating income totaled €1,961 million, a decrease of €131 million (down 6.3%) from the first nine months of 2005. The decline in the gross operating margin described above was partially offset by the benefits resulting from the €152 million decrease in depreciation, amortization and impairment losses.

Capital expenditure

Capital expenditure came to €526 million, €513 million of which for generation plants. The main investments for the first nine months of 2006 concerned the continuation of projects on the thermoelectric plants in the amount of €382 million (including the coal conversion of the Torrevaldaliga Nord plant for €183 million and the transformation of the Santa Barbara plant to combined cycle for €44 million), the refurbishing/repowering of various hydroelectric plants in the amount of €74 million (€18 million of which to cover green certificate needs), and various minor projects concerning geothermal generation plants (€48 million) and wind plants (€9 million).

Domestic Infrastructure and Networks

The Domestic Infrastructure and Networks Division is responsible for operating the electricity and gas distribution networks.

The activities are carried out by:

§ Enel Distribuzione and Deval (the latter’s operations are limited to the Valle d’Aosta region) for the distribution of electricity to the free and regulated markets; § Enel Rete Gas for the distribution of gas; § Enel Sole for public and artistic lighting.

Revenues totaled €1,313 million in the 3rd Quarter of 2006, a decrease of €124 million (down 8.6%) from the same period of 2005, due to the following factors:

§		a €123 million decrease in revenues from the electricity network, primarily attributable to the gain recognized in the 3rd Quarter of 2005 for the sale of the business unit in the Province of Trento in the amount of €91 million and the reduction in connection fees in the amount of €16 million;
§		a €1 million decrease in revenues from the gas network.

The gross operating margin totaled €788 million in the 3rd Quarter, a decrease of €95 million (down 10.8%) due to:

§		a €90 million decrease in the electricity network margin due essentially to the aforementioned gain posted in 2005 following the sale of the business unit in the Province of Trento;
§		a €5 million decrease in the gas network margin related to the decline in the gas margin and non-recurring charges.

Operating income, after increased depreciation and amortization in the amount of €15 million, totaled €588 million in the 3rd Quarter (down €110 million from the same period of the previous year).

Operating performance in the first nine months

Revenues totaled €4,080 million in the first nine months of 2006, an increase of €22 million (up 0.5%) over the same period of 2005, due to the following factors:

§		a €39 million increase in revenues from the electricity network due essentially to an increase in revenues for the transport of electricity in the amount of €64 million. This increase reflects the greater quantity of electricity transported and was partially offset by the decline in connection fees of €16 million;
§		a €17 million decrease in revenues from the gas network, which is essentially attributable to the decline in gas volumes transported (€6 million) and the recognition of non-recurring gains in the first nine months of 2005 (€10 million).

The gross operating margin totaled €2,524 million, an increase of €62 million (up 2.5%) due to:

§		a €88 million increase in the performance of the electricity network, thanks essentially to the improvement in the electricity margin (€57 million) and the containment of operating costs;
§		a €26 million decrease in the gas network margin related to the decline in the gas margin and non-recurring items in 2005 resulting from a settlement.

Operating income, after depreciation, amortization and impairment losses in the amount of €602 million (€547 million for the same period of the previous year), came to €1,922 million, increasing by €7 million (up 0.4%) over the first nine months of 2005.

Capital expenditure

Capital expenditure fell by €104 million, due essentially to a decline in investments for the low-voltage network as a result of the gradual completion of the digital metering project.

International

All resources used in international activities relating to the production, distribution and sale of electricity and gas are concentrated in the International Division.

The chief areas of operation are:

§ Spain, where the Division is engaged in power generation (Enel Viesgo Generación and Enel Unión Fenosa), power distribution and sales, and support services (Electra de Viesgo Distribución, Enel Viesgo Energia and Enel Viesgo Servicios); § Central and Eastern Europe, where it is engaged in power generation in Slovakia (Slovenské Elektrárne), generation and support in Bulgaria (Maritza East III and Maritza East 3), power distribution, sales and support in Romania (Enel Electrica Banat, Enel Electrica Dobrogea and Enel Servicii), and energy trading and sales in the Russian Federation (RusEnergoSbyt); § the Americas, where it is engaged in generating power from renewable resources (Enel North America, Enel Latin America and Enel Panama).

Regulatory and rate issues

Slovakia

The must-run plants of Slovenské Elektrárne (SE)

Slovenské Elektrárne (SE) owns two thermal plants that, in compliance with the “general economic interest” clause of the new Slovakian Energy Act (Law 658/2004), are required to guarantee availability of capacity and electricity.

The law states that SE is to be compensated for costs incurred for the operation of these plants, which cannot be recovered through the sale of electricity on the market, through a System Costs (SC) rate component levied on all final consumers. This rate

component is set annually by the Slovakian regulator (URSO) based on the expected extra costs to be paid to SE.

With its Decisions 9/2006/E, 150/2006 and 290/2006, the URSO set the reimbursement for the two must-run plants at a total of SKK 2.2 billion (equal to about €59 million) for 2005 and set the compensation for 2006 at a total of SKK 2.7 billion (equal to about €72 million). Based on actual final data, SE feels that the amount for 2005 is insufficient. Therefore, in May 2006, the company filed a formal request for an additional reimbursement from URSO, thereby initiating negotiations with the regulatory body, which are still under way.

It is expected that a request for additional reimbursement will again be necessary for 2006. The decisions of the URSO defining the reimbursement amounts for must-run plants for 2007 are expected in November or December.

Proposed amendments to the Energy Act and the law establishing the Slovakian regulator (URSO)

On October 5, the Slovakian Ministry for the Economy published a proposal for changes to the Slovakian Regulatory Act, which established the Slovakian regulator URSO, and the Energy Act. A draft has been published for consultation that includes important changes to the laws concerning:

§ the scope of URSO’s regulatory powers; § the composition of the URSO board; § the procedures for approving URSO pricing decisions.

SE has submitted its own observations, which criticize the substance of the new proposals as presented in the recent draft.

Spain

Emissions Trading

In Spain, the plants of Enel Viesgo Generación have been allocated allowances of 3.9 million metric tons for 2005, 3.4 million metric tons for 2006, and 2.7 million metric tons for 2007. Actual emissions exceeded these quotas by 2.1 million metric tons in 2005 and 0.7 million metric tons for the first nine months of 2006. It should also be noted that in order to cover the cumulative deficit, Enel Viesgo Generación has turned to the spot market for 1.0 million metric tons and the forward market for 1.1 million metric tons. The remaining deficit of 0.7 million metric tons has been valued at the market price at the end of the period.

In that regard, it should be noted that Span’s Royal Decree Law 3/2006 also calls for the deduction from the generation remuneration of a portion of the emission rights allocated free of charge by the national plan for 2006. Issuance of the related detailed regulations is still pending.

Electricity sold by the International Division in the first nine months of 2006 increased by 4,379 million kWh, with growth concentrated in the 1st Quarter due to the consolidation of the Romanian companies at the end of April 2006, and in the 3rd Quarter due to the consolidation of RusEnergoSbyt since the end of June 2006.

Operating performance in the 3rd Quarter

Revenues grew by €378 million (up 78.3%), going from €483 million to €861 million. This increase is essentially due to the consolidation of Slovenské Elektrárne (€376 million), RusEnergoSbyt (€75 million) and Enel Panama (€8 million). This was partially offset by the reduction in revenues for the Spanish firms (down €101 million) related to lower energy sales and the application, beginning in the first part of 2006, of regulations governing negotiations between power generators and distributors within a single group.

The gross operating margin reached €244 million for an increase of €118 million (up 93.7%) over the same period of 2005. The increase is essentially due to the consolidation of Slovenské Elektrárne (€115 million), RusEnergoSbyt (€3 million) and

Enel Panama (€5 million), as well as €9 million for the Spanish firms. These increases were partially offset by a reduction in the margins of the Romanian firms by a total of €16 million, which was primarily related to the electricity margin.

Operating income came to €164 million, an increase over the same period of 2005 of €90 million, of which €86 million attributable to the consolidation of Slovenské Elektrárne.

Operating performance in the first nine months

Revenues grew by €840 million (up 65.4%), going from €1,285 million to €2,125 million. This increase is essentially due to the consolidation of Slovenské Elektrárne (€620 million) and RusEnergoSbyt (€75 million) in the 2nd Quarter and Enel Panama (€8 million) in the 3rd Quarter. The growth in revenues can also be attributed to the acquisition, in the 2nd Quarter of 2005, of the two Romanian firms involved in the sale and distribution of electricity (€168 million), income from reimbursements received by Maritza East III related to disputes over project delays (€33 million), and the growth in revenues of the American companies (€30 million). These increases were partially offset by the decline in revenues for the Spanish companies (down €104 million) for the reasons cited in the comments on the results for the quarter.

The gross operating margin came to €617 million, an increase of €276 million (up 80.9%) over the same period of 2005, of which €194 million related to the consolidation of Slovenské Elektrárne (€185 million), RusEnergoSbyt (€4 million), and Enel Panama (€5 million), €28 million related to the consolidation of the Romanian companies, €30 million attributable to Maritza East III, and €28 million to the American companies. These increases were partially offset by a €3 million decline in the margin of the Spanish companies.

Operating income came to €415 million for an increase of €213 million over the same period of 2005, of which €158 million is attributable to the change in the scope of consolidation for the period (€135 million for Slovenské Elektrárne, €15 million for the Romanian firms, €4 million for Enel Panama, and €4 million for RusEnergoSbyt), €27 million to the growth in operating income achieved by the American firms, €23 million related to the Bulgarian firms, and €6 million related to the Spanish firms.

Capital expenditure

Capital expenditure came to €228 million, an increase of €62 million, which is primarily attributable to the investments of Slovenské Elektrárne (€44 million, of which €37 million in the nuclear power field).

Parent Company

As an industrial holding company, the group parent, Enel SpA, defines strategic targets for the Group and coordinates activities of its subsidiaries and associates. In addition, Enel SpA manages central treasury operations and insurance risk coverage, providing assistance and guidelines on organization, personnel management and labor relations, accounting, administrative, fiscal, legal, and corporate matters. Moreover, Enel retains title to long-term electricity import contracts.

Operating performance in the 3rd Quarter

Revenues came to €284 million in the 3rd Quarter of 2006, an increase of €22 million over the same period of 2005 (up 8.4%), due primarily to the increase in revenues from electricity sales mainly as a result of higher sales prices.

The gross operating margin for the 3rd Quarter of 2006 totaled €41 million, a decrease of €7 million from the same period of 2005. This decrease is primarily

attributable to the drop in margins on the electricity sales under the long-term import contracts in the amount of €4 million and to an increase in costs for services.

Operating income came to €38 million, a decline of €8 million from the same period of the previous year (€46 million) in that, with respect to the gross operating margin, it was impacted by an increase of €1 million in depreciation, amortization and impairment losses.

Operating performance in the first nine months

Revenues came to €866 million for the first nine months of 2006, an increase of €99 million over the same period of 2005 (up 12.9%). This increase is primarily related to the growth in revenues from electricity sales due essentially to price increases (€75 million) and to gains connected with the release to the income statement of gains recorded directly to equity in 2005 (€23 million) resulting from the fair value measurement of the Terna bonus shares, the rights for which were exercised in January 2006.

The gross operating margin for the first nine months of 2006 amounted to €175 million, an increase of €121 million over the same period in 2005, related essentially to an improvement in the margin on electricity sales (€80 million) and to the aforementioned income on the Terna bonus shares. These factors also combined with a reduction in operating costs, which was primarily related to lower provisions for risks and charges compared with the first nine months of 2005 (€11 million) and costs incurred during 2005 related to the fourth placement of Enel shares (€10 million).

Operating income came to €428 million, an increase of €380 million over the same period of the previous year (€48 million), due both to the improvement in the gross operating margin and to the recognition of the income related to the Wind-Weather share exchange, which was partially offset by the increase in depreciation, amortization and impairment losses in the amount of €4 million.

Services and Other Activities

The primary purpose of the Services and Other Activities area provides competitive services to the Enel Group companies, such as real estate and facility management services, IT services, personnel training and administration, general administrative services, factoring and insurance services, as well as water-related activities, which are gradually being divested.

For the purposes of comparison between the periods in question, it should be noted that on April 1, 2005, Enel Ape (now Enel Servizi) acquired the “Administration” units of Parent Company, Enel Distribuzione and Enel Produzione, while on July 1, 2005 the Group companies transferred their “Services” units to Enel Servizi. Furthermore, on January 1, 2006, Enel Produzione acquired the Enelpower unit involved in engineering and construction activities for electricity generation plants serving the Group’s needs.

Operating performance in the 3rd Quarter

Revenues for the Services and Other Activities area came to €272 million in the 3rd Quarter of 2006, compared with €396 million in the same period of 2005. The decline of €124 million (down 31.3%) is essentially the result of the sale to Enel Produzione of the engineering and construction unit (down €142 million).

The gross operating margin for the 3rd Quarter of 2006 totaled €44 million, a decrease of €34 million from the same period of 2005. This decline is essentially the result of the sale to Enel Produzione of the engineering and construction unit (down €31 million).

Operating income in the 3rd Quarter of 2006 came to €23 million, declining by €34 million.

Operating performance in the first nine months

Revenues for the Services and Other Activities area in the first nine months of 2006 came to €782 million, compared with €1,089 million in the same period of 2005. This decline of €307 million (down 28.2%) is essentially the result of the sale to Enel Produzione of the engineering and construction unit (down €404 million) and smaller gains on the sale of real estate by Dalmazia Trieste (down €19 million), which was partially offset by higher revenues for staff services delivered by Enel Servizi thanks to its acquisitions of these operations in the 2nd and 3rd Quarters of 2005 (up €118 million).

The gross operating margin for the first nine months of 2006 amounted to €141 million, a decrease of €41 million (down 22.5%) from the same period of 2005, related essentially to the decrease in real estate gains and the sale of the engineering and construction unit.

Operating income amounted to €78 million for the first nine months of 2006, down €42 million from the same period of 2005.

In the 3rd Quarter of 2006, revenues from “electricity sales and transport and Electricity Equalization Fund contributions” amounted to €8,848 million, an increase of €1,340 million (up 17.8%) compared with the corresponding period of the previous year. The increase reflects the rise of €667 million in revenues from the international market, of which €326 million from the consolidation of Slovenské Elektrárne since the end of April, 2006, €75 million from the consolidation of RusEnergoSbyt and €8 million from the acquisition of Enel Panama on August 1, 2006. Also contributing were higher revenues from the sale and transport of electricity in Italy on the free and regulated markets (up €534 million), largely as a result of the increase in rates as from the 2nd Quarter of 2006, and the higher revenues from the “Ancillary Services Market” (up €103 million).

In the first nine months of 2006, revenues from “electricity sales and transport and Electricity Equalization Fund contributions” amounted to €25,615 million, up €4,316 million, or 20.3%, compared with the corresponding period of 2005. The increase is ascribable to the following factors:

§		an increase of €2,106 million from higher revenues from the transport and sale of electricity on the domestic free and regulated markets (up €1,034 million), essentially the result of higher unit electricity rates and an expansion of volumes sold on the free market; higher revenues assigned to the coverage of generation costs reflected in rates (up €980 million); and equalization payments for the coverage of generation costs not yet reflected in rates (up €52 million);
§		an increase of €1,643 million in revenues from abroad, of which €559 million from Slovenské Elektrárne, €175 million from the Romanian electricity distribution and

		sales companies Enel Electrica Banat and Enel Electrica Dobrogea, €75 million from RusEnergoSbyt, €29 million from the American companies and €786 million from international electricity trading;
§		an increase of €662 million in revenues from sales on the Power Exchange, of which €380 million relates to remuneration of ancillary services;
§		a decrease in contributions from the Electricity Equalization Fund in connection with the recognition in the first half of 2005 of revenues of €100 million for the reimbursement of the charges incurred for green certificates in 2002 and 2003.

Revenues from the “sale and transport of gas to end-users” rose by €31 million in the 3rd Quarter of 2006 (up 19.3%), while in the first nine months of 2006 revenues showed an increase of €135 million (up 13.1%). The rise is attributable to the increase in the raw material component of gas rates, which more than offset the decline in volumes sold.

“Capital gains on the disposal of assets” totaled €3 million in the 3rd Quarter of 2006, a fall of €97 million mainly attributable to the recognition in the 3rd Quarter of 2005 of capital gains from the sale of the distribution network in the Province of Trento. For the first nine months of 2006, the reduction was less pronounced (down €15 million) as a result of the capital gains realized on the sale in the 2nd Quarter of 2006 of the distribution networks in 18 municipalities in the Province of Modena (€85 million).

“Other services, sales and revenues” came to €1,743 million in the first nine months of 2006 (€513 million in the 3rd Quarter of 2006), a reduction of €279 million with respect to the corresponding period of 2005 (the decline for the 3rd Quarter only was €30 million). Most of this reduction is related to gains recognized in the 2nd Quarter of 2005 in the amount of €262 million for prior-year regulatory items connected with reserve services provided to the ISO (now the Electricity System Operator), and to a fall of €100 million in the first nine months of 2006 of revenues from contract work in progress (down €25 million in the 3rd Quarter of 2006), due to the decline in engineering and construction for third parties, both domestically and abroad, which was limited to the completion of work in progress. As regards revenues in the first nine months of the year, the reductions were partly offset by reimbursements to Maritza East III in connection with disputes over project delays (€33 million).

The cost of “electricity purchases from third parties” rose by €688 million in the 3rd Quarter of 2006 (up 18.6%) and by €2,304 million in the first nine months (up 22.2%). The increase mainly reflects the rise in the average cost of electricity, which was partly offset by a fall in the quantities purchased in the periods, essentially as a result of a decline in net imports and lower sales to the regulated market.

“Consumption of fuel for electricity generation” came to €1,066 million in the 3rd Quarter of the year, up €51 million with respect to the corresponding period of 2005 (up 5.0%), and, in the first nine months of 2006, came to €3,150 million, an increase of €355 million (up 12.7%) due primarily to the increase in the average unit cost of fuels, which more than offset the effects of the decline in thermal electricity generation.

“Purchases of fuel for trading and natural gas for resale to end-users” remained substantially unchanged in the 3rd Quarter of 2006 with respect to the corresponding quarter of the previous year, but rose by €137 million for the first nine months of the year (up 13.0%), essentially as a result of higher prices, which were reflected in costs for the purchase of natural gas for resale to end-users.

Costs for “materials” came to €234 million in the 3rd Quarter (€573 million in the first nine months), up €44 million (up €16 million for the first nine months), basically due to the increased use of materials by the Domestic Generation and Energy Management Division for the maintenance of power plants and to the expanded scope of consolidation of the International Division. The increases were partly offset by a contraction in consumption of materials by the Domestic Infrastructure and Networks Division following the gradual completion of the digital metering project.

“Personnel costs” for the 3rd Quarter of 2006 totaled €702 million, up €46 million or 7.0%. Excluding the effects of the change in the scope of consolidation, which mainly regarded foreign companies, personnel costs in the 3rd Quarter increased by €15 million, while the average workforce rose 1.2%.

In the first nine months of 2006, personnel costs totaled €2,073 million, up €51 million compared with the corresponding period of 2005 (up 2.5%). Excluding the consolidation effects mentioned above, personnel costs in the first nine months of the year fell by €3 million, while the average workforce diminished by 3.1%. The result takes account of the total charge of €48 million arising from the renewal of the national collective bargaining agreement. Personnel costs in the first nine months of the year also include a charge of around €40 million, recognized in the 3rd Quarter, in respect of the employee retirement incentive scheme.

Costs for “services, leases and rents” totaled €863 million in the 3rd Quarter of 2006, up €151 million or €21.2% compared with the same period of 2005, while the costs for the first nine months came to €2,386 million, an increase of €212 million (up 9.8%), mainly due to electricity and gas wheeling costs.

“Charges for CO2 emissions” amounted to €12 million in the 3rd Quarter of 2006 and €34 million in the first nine months. The charges relate to the allowance deficit for the two periods in question (valued at the procurement price for allowances already covered by spot and forward purchases and by the prices at the end of September for allowances that were not yet covered). The values are offset by the positive effect of the alignment of the allowance deficit for 2005 with the procurement prices for allowances purchased in 2006. The prices were lower than the market prices used for the measurement made at December 31, 2005.

“Other operating costs” in the 3rd Quarter of 2006 showed an increase of €34 million compared with the corresponding period of the previous year (up 23.9%), mainly due to the increased charges arising from the consolidation of Slovenské Elektrárne. In the first nine months of the year, other operating costs came to €341 million, a fall of €74 million (down 17.8%) due to lower green certificate charges (down €50 million) and smaller provisions for risks and charges (down €29 million).

In the 3rd Quarter and in the first nine months of 2006, “capitalized costs” fell by €34 million (down 13.9%) and €91 million (down 12.5%) respectively, primarily due to lower investment by the Domestic Infrastructure and Networks Division, partially offset by an increase in investment by the International Division. The capitalized costs for the first

nine months of the year refer to personnel costs (€272 million) and materials costs (€366 million).

Net income/(charges) from commodity risk management came to a negative €180 million in the 3rd Quarter of 2006 (a negative €99 million in the 3rd Quarter of 2005) and a negative €544 million in the first nine months of 2006 (compared with a positive €226 million in the first nine months of 2005). This development is due primarily to greater net charges on contracts for differences with the Single Buyer. In particular, net charges for the first nine months of 2006 include €327 million realized during the period and €217 million for the fair value measurement of derivative contracts at the end of the period. In the 3rd Quarter of 2006, net realized amounts were a negative €184 million, while the fair value measurement of derivatives was a positive €4 million.

These results reflect increases in energy prices in the pool, which also resulted in an increase in revenues from electricity sales on the Power Exchange.

Income from equity exchange transaction is related to the measurement of the effects of the equity exchange of 30.97% of Wind for 20.9% of Weather, which led to the recognition of income of €263 million.

Depreciation, amortization and impairment losses rose by €41 million (up 7.6%) in the 3rd Quarter, which is essentially a reflection of the higher charges arising from the consolidation of Slovenské Elektrárne. Depreciation, amortization and impairment losses contracted by €16 million or 1.0% in the first nine months of the year, due primarily to a decline in the impairment of receivables, which more than offset the increase associated with expansion of the scope of consolidation mentioned above.

Operating income amounted to €1,320 million in the 3rd Quarter of 2006, an increase of €61 million with respect to the 3rd Quarter of 2005 (up 4.8%). In the first nine months of 2006, operating income came to €4,885 million, an increase of €540 million (up 12.4%). Contributing to the rise was €263 million in income generated from the Wind-Weather equity exchange.

Other factors that contributed to the rise in operating income are outlined in the analysis of results by Division.

Net financial expense and the result of equity investments accounted for using the equity method show an overall improvement of €20 million in the 3rd Quarter compared with the corresponding quarter of 2005. Net financial expense remained substantially unchanged, while the improvement in the negative result from equity investments accounted for using the equity method mainly reflects the

recognition in the 3rd Quarter of 2005 of the share of the loss associated with the 37.25% investment in Wind.

In the first nine months of 2006, these charges fell by €80 million compared with the corresponding period of 2005. The fall in net financial expense is mainly due to a reduction in average debt in the period.

In the 3rd Quarter of 2006, income taxes totaled €425 million, representing an effective tax rate of 38.0%. The tax charge for the first nine months of 2006 amounted to an estimated €1,674 million, representing an effective tax rate of 38.1%, compared with 41.0% in the first nine months of 2005. Excluding the income generated by the Wind-Weather equity exchange, the effective tax rate for the first nine months of the year would be 40.4%.

Analysis of the Group’s financial position

Non-current assets – €39,965 million

Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, including investment property increased by a total of €2,336 million in the first nine months of 2006. The rise was essentially due to the change in the scope of consolidation resulting from the acquisition of a 66% stake in Slovenské Elektrárne (€2,088 million), Enel Panama (€159 million) and capital expenditure in the period amounting to €1,795 million, net of depreciation, amortization and value impairments totaling €1,604 million.

Goodwill totaled €2,134 million, an increase of €559 million, mainly attributable to the recognition of goodwill related to the acquisition of Slovenské Elektrárne (€461 million), RusEnergoSbyt (€80 million), Enel Panama (€61 million) and Erelis (€14 million), net of the elimination of goodwill related to the sale of 30% of Enel Unión Fenosa Renovables (down €49 million).

Equity investments accounted for using the equity method totaled €2,012 million, including €1,962 million for the investment in Weather (26.1%). Other non-current assets came to €2,688 million, down €901 million as a result of the following:

§		a €652 million decrease in the receivables from the Electricity Equalization Fund related essentially to the reclassification to current assets of the portion of the receivable for the reimbursement of stranded costs due within the next year, as envisaged by the Authority in its Resolution no. 132/06 of June 28, 2006
§		the reclassification in the first nine months of 2006 of the 5.2% investment in Weather to equity investments accounted for using the equity method; it had been

recognized among non-current financial assets in the amount of €286 million at December 31, 2005; § a decline of €275 million in deferred tax assets, mainly due to the recognition in the income statement of taxation for the first nine months of 2006; § release of the deposit for the purchase of 66% of Slovenské Elektrárne (€168 million), which was recognized among non-current financial assets at the end of 2005; § an increase in other non-current assets related to the consolidation of Slovenské Elektrárne in the amount of €336 million.

Current assets – € 13,957 million

The reduction of €630 million in trade receivables is largely ascribable to receivables in respect of gas sales and the settlements of transactions on the Power Exchange by the power generation companies.

The increase of €435 million in inventories essentially regards the change in the scope of consolidation with the acquisition of Slovenské Elektrárne and the increased value of fuel inventories.

Other provisions and deferred tax liabilities rose by €999 million, mainly as a result of increased provisions for risks and charges arising from the expansion of the scope of consolidation following the acquisition of Slovenské Elektrárne (€1,162 million).

Other non-current liabilities totaled €1,087 million, virtually unchanged with respect to December 31, 2005.

Current liabilities – €15,695 million

Short-term loans and the current portion of long-term loans rose by €592 million, from €2,296 million at the end of 2005 to €2,888 million at September 30, 2006.

Trade payables amounted to €5,528 million, a reduction of €1,082 million due largely to the reduction in payables for electricity purchases and a change in the timing of investment activities.
